If McCain Wins...

[mishalak]

I'm staying right here. If taxes go up, if taxes go down, if Republicans are elected or Democrats I'm still staying. If the river dries up, if the economy is crap, if there is plutonium in the reservoirs, Colorado is still my home. If an asteroid the size of a small stadium is headed right for the city, I'm staying because Denver is where I live and going anywhere else would be mere survival rather than living.

The rest of you may all decide to decamp for Canada and abandon America to her fate, but I cannot live anywhere else but Colorado. So as long as Colorado is in the Union I shall be a part of it too and as my ancestors before me I shall live, work, die, and stay here forever.

(Yes this is partially in response to someone muttering about going to another country if a Republican wins the White House this time around.)

Hey, we liked having your around when you were in the Bay Area. But I understand the pull of home. And I survived Nixon, Reagan, Bush, and Bush; I'll get through McCain if it comes to that (but I'm glad I'm too old to be drafted and have no sons.)

I liked the bay area, but it was killing me by inches. I'm like one of those fussy plants that hates transplant stress and are as likely to die as take.
